The Thorn in Our Flesh
Since am weakened, in my body
And so no longer, can do all
But can rest in my weakness
Upon His strength, I daily call.
Israel – October 7th, 2023
Yet, our God uses foes
In revealing His plan
That Israel, be saved
Despite the evil of man.
Great Faith, God is Able
Fully trusting God’s promises
With obedience to His word
Being steadfastness in prayer
By circumstances, undeterred.
God’s Pressure Cooker
God uses all ways
To turn up the heat
To soften our hearts
Our hardness, defeat.
Failing, Falling or Faith?
When we’re failing and falling
And we’re hitting, rock bottom
We can stand, on Christ Jesus
Our sure Rock, and still blossom.
Don’t Harden Your Heart
Don’t harden your heart
Staying stubborn, defiant
With grievances, grudges
Hard-headed, self-reliant.
Put on the New
So daily put on, the new man
In God’s likeness, created
In true righteousness, holiness
Daily victorious, and elated.
Psalm 37:1-12. Commit Your Way to the LORD
Rest in Him, and wait patiently
Fret not o’er those who prosper
Those working wicked ways
Whose works are improper.
Watching and Waiting
Be ever ready for His coming
Though we know not the hour
But be His faithful, wise steward
Await His blessings, to shower.
Temptations
Once we’re strong in the Lord
And the power of His might
In the armor of God
Each temptation takes flight.
